2. Goldberg Versus Brock Lesnar II - WrestleMania 33

This match could have easily been phoned in, another 90 second squash, just in the other direction.

Instead, Goldberg and Brock Lesnar put the hammer down for about 5 minutes in a clash of the titans. Goldberg defended his WWE Universal Championship against Brock at WrestleMania 33, putting his streak of owning Lesnar on the line as well. And the champ hit the Beast with everything, including spears and a Jackhammer, but Lesnar managed to kick out.

From there, the action segued to Suplex City, as Brock delivered 10(!) German suplexes to Goldberg before putting him down with the F-5 to win the title and send Goldberg back into semi-retirement (which included a WWE Hall of Fame induction).

It was a hard-hitting match that exceeded all expectations, which is really all you could ask for from this match. Honestly, you could flip #1 and #2 on this list and not be wrong.
